Identity & Authority — The Lens

Inspect the JSON-LD. Is there an Organization or Person schema, and does it carry sameAs links to real external profiles (LinkedIn, socials)? Missing schema or no identity declaration signals an anonymous entity.

A significant technical gap exists as schema_json is null across all pages, representing a lack of structured identity for a major entity like Spadel N.V. Expert references are limited to an influencer (@idoitmyself.be) for ‘upcycling’ rather than scientific experts or geologists to back the purity claims. There is no Person schema or digital footprint provided for the ‘family story’ mentioned in the H3 of the homepage.

The marketing tone relies heavily on the ‘legendary purity’ of the water, but the site fails to demonstrate this with scientific data or third-party laboratory results. Claims of ‘65% less plastic’ are quantified but compared against internal standards (‘6x1L and 6×1.5L packs’) rather than an industry-wide benchmark, which is a classic defensive marketing tactic. The ‘8 myths about sparkling water’ section promises information but lacks a linked source to clinical studies.

Identity & Authority is read from the structured data first: whether the site declares who it is in machine-readable schema, with verifiable identity links. Below is the schema captured per page, then the external proof links that support (or fail to support) that identity.
